AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Organism**: Methanogens are a type of archaebacteria known for their ability to produce methane gas. 2. **Understand the Habitat**: Methanogens thrive in extreme environments. They are often found in anaerobic (oxygen-free) conditions where organic matter is decomposed. 3. **Evaluate the Options**: - **Hot Spring**: While some extremophiles live in hot springs, methanogens are not typically the most abundant organisms here. - **Sulfur Rock**: This environment is not ideal for methanogens as they prefer organic-rich environments. - **Cattle Yard**: This is an environment rich in organic matter and anaerobic conditions, making it suitable for methanogens to thrive and produce methane. - **Polluted Stream**: Although there may be some methanogens present, this environment is not as optimal as a cattle yard. 4. **Conclusion**: Based on the habitats where methanogens are most abundant, the best option is **Cattle Yard**. 5. **Final Answer**: The organisms called Methanogens are most abundant in **Cattle Yard**.
